I haven't been in the States for a while now, so my question might seem silly to some...

[SKKY]

...but when the hell did Target stores get so cool? They actually sell cool, name brand stuff. I never received the memo.

1. About the time WalMart went 100% "Made In China"

[SKKY]

2. I picked up some Chucks today. Chucks!?!? At Target?!

Who knew?

3. Are you in the States now?

:hi:

[SKKY]

5. Yea, I head back to Spain on Tuesday.

PM coming your way.

9. As opposed to Target's policy of 92% made in China?

Just checking.

4. I like Target.

I would rather go there than Walmart.

[SKKY]

6. I don't shop at Walmart. I don't need to.

I don't mind paying a couple of dollars more to have piece of mind.

[bigwillq]

13. Me too!

I would rather pay a bit more. I go to this Mom and Pop market. Milk and bread are like $1 more than in a "normal" store, but I still buy it from them. I believe in Mom and Pops! :)

7. Hm...

I think it was around the time when K-Mart went belly up.

[SKKY]

10. I lived in San Diego at that particular time, but I don't remember Target being cool.

I can't get over it. I walked around Target today for about 2 hours just absorbing the whole thing.

8. About 7 or 8 years ago.

11. I just got back from Target!

or as we say "tarjay"

[crimsonblue]

12. It's always been that way?

:shrug:

[SKKY]

14. Has it? I never knew.

15. I don't know, but Target is the shit!

I know I help keep them in business. I make daily runs to Target and buy clothes and shoes there a good bit.
